*Fisher weighs 22 lbs 13 oz (10th %ile). He is 32 3/4 inches tall, and his head is 18 3/4 inches (both around the 50th %ile).
*He wears cloth diapers (size 3 in a disposable) and 9-12/6-12 month outfits, depending on the brand. He can wear 18 month long alls and some 12-18 month shirts. He wears a 4.5 or size 5 shoe.
* He still has a great appetite. Most of the time, he is very willing to try whatever I give him. His current favorites are oatmeal, bananas, and cheese. He is a sippy cup pro!
*He still loves reading books all of the time. We need some new ones-I've got all of his memorized!
* He is drinking water and milk during the day, but mostly water. He will only drink milk out of a specific sippy cup. We are officially off the bottle-YAY! He has done great giving it up-I just stopped giving him one at bedtime, and while he asked for it a few days, he hasn't skipped a beat.
* He goes to bed between 830 and 930, and wakes up around that same time in the morning. Sometimes bedtimes are a battle, taking 1-2 hours to get him to sleep. He very rarely wakes up during the night anymore, which is wonderful!
* Fishy is mostly down to one nap a day. He is normally up for about 2-3 hours, then he goes down for a nap for roughly 1.5-2.5 hours. Occasionally, he will take two naps, but only if his first nap is about an hour long.
*New words that I can remember include Jamie, tree, Lady/Karl/Jack (dogs), rainbow (I think only I can recognize that one), fish, yogurt (gogurt), banana (nana), purple, truck, lovie (lully).
*He is recognizing animals and their sounds. He can do cow/moo, duck/quack quack (which he says kack-kack), cat/meow (he says mow), snake/sssssss, dog/woof woof, sheep/baa, rooster/cock a (he doesn't finish the sound yet). He also recognizes horse, frog, chicken, bird, mouse, goat, and pig. He'll point them out but he won't say their sound yet.
*He loves to play in the floor with his toys. He loves anything with wheels; he likes to push his toys across the floor. He loves pens and pretending to write. He also loves playing with Daddy's old wallet and cards. He likes to show off his muscles when asked. :)
*He has been especially loving lately-always giving (wet) kisses and hugs. I love it!
*Lovie is still very much a constant attachment, and so is his thumb in his mouth when he's tired.
*He is working on learning more complicated body parts. We've been working on elbows and other areas.
*Still loves taking a shower.
*He likes to grab my phone and say "cheese". :)
*He loves to help throw clothes, mainly socks, in the dryer. He will also attempt to help me put utensils in the dishwasher, although he would rather take them out! He's such a good helper. :)
* He has sixteen teeth! He has eight on the bottom and eight on the top. He has his top and bottom molars on both sides. I have no idea if he has more because he won't let me look, but I don't think he's been teething lately.
*Nicknames: Fishy, Bubba, Bubby, Baby, Buddy, Bug, love
